"In me? For caring for my fiancé? It’s your daughter who you should be disappointed in! She’s the one who was going around kissing my fiancé!" Jasmin shouted.

Oh, Goddess…. All eyes turned to us and my cheeks burned as I felt Dad's gaze on me.

"She didn’t kiss me." Alejandro growled, "Now get the fuck out!"

His command was clear and Alpha Bill pulled Jasmin to the door. Our eyes met and I saw the unfiltered hatred in them. I had just made myself an enemy.

"Excuse us…" Alpha Kennan murmured as both he and Allen left, leaving just our families here. Dad massaged his temples.

"Do I even want to know what the hell that was about?" He asked.

I didn’t miss his gaze flickering to Rayhan. Oh, this was so embarrassing…

"I do." Mom said, her eyes glaring at Alejandro.

"Mom… Seriously, I'm not a kid. Secondly, can we not do this? It’s usually Dad and Liam. Now you're doing the same thing!" I snapped.

She turned her attention away from the man who had a ‘I don’t give a fuck’ look on his face and looked at me with a frown.

"Obviously, since you and your father decided not to tell me." She said, I didn’t miss the flash of hurt in her eyes.

I frowned. Why did I have to answer to anyone?

"Because there was no time… You came and it wasn’t like you gave me a chance! You and Dad jumped each other. When did I get the chance? And don’t blame Dad because it wasn’t his thing to tell. What did you expect me to say? I'm mated to someone who doesn't want me? It’s fine anyway. I don’t have anything to prove to anyone and neither am I going to do so. Now if we’re done, I'm going to bed. It’s been a long night." I said coldly.

I knew Mom was upset, but so was I. I had been through so much and even now, I had no idea what we were. Something broke within me at the sight of him and Jasmin. Just because he refused to marry her… It didn’t make all that pain go away…

"Get some rest." Dad said quietly.

I didn’t reply, simply nodded, turned and left the room.

ALEJANDRO

Kiara left the fucking room but she left a fucking rabid wolf behind in the process.

Scarlett lunged at me, I blocked as she threw a punch, I knocked her arm aside as she followed with a kick. I growled but her eyes simply flashed. I knew I had less fucking control over her than Elijah, we always put it down to her fucking abilities. But now I wondered if it had something to do with her bloodline.

I was going to leave tomorrow for the Galloway forest, and Callum would find that witch who knew more about the Asheton lineage. I needed answers, the quicker the better.

I grabbed her throat, growling, but she just fucking punched me across the jaw. Maria gasped and I clenched my jaw, if she was not Kiara’s mother… My eyes flashed. Rafael stepped forward and I dropped the woman.

"Watch it, or I won't mind tearing you to fucking pieces…" I said murderously to Scarlett.

"Don’t threaten my mate." Elijah growled, his anger radiating in the room.

"Then keep her on a fucking leash." I shot back.

He lunged at me and I really did want to beat the dickhead up, but Rafael the fucking peacemaker, stepped between us.

"Please boys, play nice." He said.

"Red come on, baby." Elijah said, tugging his crazy she-wolf into his arms as he glared daggers at me. If looks could fucking kill…

"I am fucking pissed off with you as well!" Scarlett snapped, glaring at Elijah. "You knew they were mates before the engagement party, right?!"

"I had my suspicions."
